Tylenol PM Helped me When #IWasSoTired!

I have received information and materials from McNeil Consumer Healthcare, Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc., the makers of TYLENOL®. The opinions stated are my own. This is a sponsored post.Screen Shot 2015-04-20 at 2.35.46 PM

Have you ever been so tired you felt like tying your shoes was a struggle? I certainly have. It’s especially true – and bothersome – for me when I’ve got a particularly nasty bug. When the aches and pains start coming on, I have a tough time sleeping. That’s why I love TYLENOL® PM.

TYLENOL® PM is the TYLENOL® I’ve used for years, but with a little something extra to help me fall asleep on those occasions when it’s just not going to happen. I’m sure you’ve had those nights. Sometimes, when you go to bed, the Sandman just skips you. Maybe you’re wired from being on the computer too late in the evening. Or maybe you’re like me, and that cold you have is just kicking your butt. It’s really hard to fall asleep when all your muscles hurt. Those are the times I use TYLENOL® PM. It helps a person with no chronic sleep issues like me fall asleep on those rare occasions when it just won’t come.

Once I was so Tired I…

Put the milk in the pantry. Yep. I had a wicked bad cold. I mean bad. It was the total package, congestion, headache, body pain. It was all that and a crappy bag of chips. I was so sore, I couldn’t sleep. The next day, I groggily made my breakfast. I then proceeded to put the cereal in the fridge and the milk in the pantry. True story. I had called off of work that day, and I didn’t move for a solid 10 hours. Of course, by the time I went to the pantry for crackers, I had spoiled milk and ice cold cereal. Yum.

Needless to say, I tried TYLENOL® PM that night, and it worked! It lessened my symptoms and helped me fall asleep. The next day I wasn’t 100%, but I wasn’t a cereal refrigerating, milk curdling zombie.

Tips to Help You Sleep

If you have issues falling asleep, there are some things you can do to help train your body to sleep better. These tips can make it easier for you to fall asleep and get the much needed rest your body needs.

  • Sleep Schedule: It’s so important to have a schedule. A routine sleep schedule lets your internal clock know when it’s time to go to sleep. This can make falling asleep easier.
  • Get Out of Bed if You Can’t Sleep: If the Sandman isn’t making an appearance after 30 minutes, get up. You’re not going to sleep any time soon, and just lying there can actually make it even harder to sleep. Instead, read a book or go for a walk. Do something that takes your mind off the fact that you can’t sleep.
  • Unplug: Stop all computer work, television, and the like, an hour before bed. Your body needs a chance to wind down before hitting the sack. You’ll be too wired to sleep if you go directly from the computer to the bed.
  • Power Nap: If you have a schedule that makes getting a full 8 hours impossible, try slipping in a power nap. Studies have shown that naps increase performance, concentration, and wakefulness.
  • No Pain, Definite Gain: If you’re having trouble getting shut eye because of pain, try TYLENOL® PM. It has a pain reliever and fever reducer along with a sleep aid to help alleviate your cold symptoms and help you fall asleep. Because sometimes, no matter what you do, you need a little help.

    I was once so tired that I fell asleep while I was doing a glitter craft post. I was SO full of glitter. =/

    I don’t know about being deliriously tired, but I once had a flu so bad, that I got my kids up to rush them off to school on a Saturday.

    I’ve put the milk in the pantry before. And the cereal went in the fridge!

    I’ve been here many, many times. Glad Tylenol PM was able to help.

  5. Liz Mays says

    Getting up and doing something else to help sleep sounds like a good idea. Tylenol Pm is a great tool to have on those particularly bad nights.

  6. Kecia says

    I once fell asleep at a movie theater I was so tired. That’s not the most embarrassing place, I’m sure, but I just hope I wasn’t snoring!

  7. Jeanine says

    April 20, 2015 at 7:24 pm

    Tylenol PM. When I’m done breastfeeding I will have to try. I have the worst time falling asleep and even staying asleep. It’d awful. Glad it worked for you!

  8. Terry says

    April 20, 2015 at 8:26 pm

    I used to use the Tylenol p.m. I don’t seem to need anything to sleep anymore but when you needed it works.

  9. Marcie W. says

    April 20, 2015 at 8:36 pm

    I can definitely relate. My most tired moments usually involve me being mean and moody.

  10. Catherine S says

    I am glad Tylenol PM helped you get some sleep. I was so tired one time I went to make coffee and didn’t put a mug under to catch the coffee.

  11. Tracy @ Ascending Butterfly says

    I am a lifelong insomniac so I can definitely relate to a lack of sleep! It makes for a strange day sometimes that’s for sure!

  12. Theresa says

    April 20, 2015 at 9:46 pm

    I’ve done the milk in the pantry thing before too! I think I need to get some Tylenol PM to help me get a better nights sleep!

  13. Crystal says

    April 21, 2015 at 10:11 am

    Those are great reminders for getting some zzz’s. I know I’m guilty of lying there, obsessing over why I can’t sleep.

  14. Christie says

    April 21, 2015 at 10:56 am

    Definitely don’t get enough sleep for sure! It was so much worse when I was a nruse too

  15. Demetra @SweetSavant says

    These are all great tips for getting a better night’s sleep. I sprained my ankle a few years back and the throbbing pain would not let me sleep. Tylenol PM would have been a big help.

  16. melisasource says

    April 21, 2015 at 12:15 pm

    Tylenol pm is awesome! I always use it to help me get a comfortable sleep.

  17. Debbie Denny says

    April 21, 2015 at 12:30 pm

    I have been there many times. Tylenol has great products.

  18. Beth@FrugalFroggie says

    I used to have a hard time sleeping when I younger. Pretty much now I am able to get to sleep pretty quickly.

    I’ve had some strange things end up in my freezer. LOL I suffer from terrible bouts of insomnia. It’s something I have been dealing with for a long time. Pills don’t ever seem to help. I have used Tylenol PM for migraines though.

  20. Robin (Masshole Mommy) says

    April 21, 2015 at 3:31 pm

    I find myself not being able to sleep often. I will have to try some of these tips out.

  21. Ann Bacciaglia says

    April 21, 2015 at 4:13 pm

    Tylenol Pm is a great way to get to sleep on those long nights when you just can not sleep no matter how tired you are.

  22. Debbie L. says

    April 21, 2015 at 9:55 pm

    I love Tylenol PM – it helps me sleep many a night

  23. Jocelyn McGaffic says

    April 22, 2015 at 12:04 am

    I am tired all the time due to kids with sleep issues. Some days I just don’t want to move, but somehow they have all kinds of energy!

  24. Amanda says

    April 22, 2015 at 12:58 am

    Just the other morning, I poured orange juice into the kids cereal bowls. They thought I was crazy!

  25. Amanda says

    April 22, 2015 at 5:00 pm

    I once was so tired I fell asleep while sitting up. My kids just played around me!

  26. Carly Brydon says

    April 22, 2015 at 8:05 pm

    I have had many sleepless nights when I’m absolutely exhausted. I need to try Tylenol PM next time it happens!

  27. Cinny says

    April 23, 2015 at 2:07 am

    I’ve had so many tough nights of sleep when I was super tired. This would’ve been helpful.

  28. Megan @ C'mon Get Crafty says

    April 23, 2015 at 8:41 am

    It’s great that you can use Tylenol PM to help get some needed rest. I have a hard time falling asleep, I’m usually still running through my to do list for the next day!
